Walter Trout

“When I was trying to figure out what to write for Kenny Wayne to record with us ,I just figured it all comes back to the blues and let’s both of us go back to our roots. Musically it’s where we both come from. So this is a straight-ahead shuffle and I think he and I really complement each other in our playing. This cut was really fun to record , and I think it’s smokin’ !!”

WalterTrout-KennyWayneShepherd

Walter Trout is the beating heart of the modern blues rock scene. Respected by the old guard. Revered by the young guns. Adored by the fans who shake his hand after the show each night. After five decades in the game, Trout is a talismanic figure and the glue that bonds the blues community together, at a time when the wider world has never been so divided. He’s also the only artist with the vision, talent and star-studded address book to pull off a project on the scale of We’re All In This Together. “It was quite a piece of work to get this record together,” he admits. “But I guess I have a lot of friends, y’know…?”

World-class musicians SUPERSONIC BLUES MACHINE released their debut album “West Of Flushing South Of Frisco” (via http://mascotlabelgroup.com) as ensemble in February but now the band will bring their music in Europe. This summer, 6 August they will perform at the prestegious Notodden Blues Festival. NBF is one of the largest blues music festivals in Europe and the largest in Scandinavia. The festival is held in Notodden, Norway, has been running annually since 1988 and is visited by 25.000 blues fans from throughout the world. More information on Notodden Blues Festival here.

SUPERSONIC BLUES MACHINE was formed by Fabrizio Grossi, Lance Lopez and Kenny Aronoff and for this special occasion will be joined by no other than Steve Lukather, Robben Ford and Walter Trout. Robben and Walter also featured on SBM’s debut album West of Flushing, South of Frisco.

Taken from “West Of Flushing South Of Frisco” is the band’s new single “Remedy” features Warren Haynes on guitar and vocals. In the brand new video you will also spot some of the other gentlemen mentioned above.

Watch the video here:

Press on Supersonic Blues Machine – West of Flushing, South of Frisco:

“Modern blues doesn’t get much better than this” – “Superb” 9/10 (The Blues)
“Formidable…a modern day super-session which manages to hang on to the heart and soul” (Classic Rock)
“A sleek, stretched Cadillac of a Blues band” (Fireworks)
“You won’t find more soloing on any release this year” (Guitar & Bass)

Fabrizio Grossi (bass/producer/engineer/wordsmith) worked his artistry in his birthplace – Milan, Italy – before migrating to London, Canada, New York, and currently Los Angeles.

Texan Lance Lopez (guitar/vocals) accrued at least one lifetime of experience before he was out of high school while playing bars in Louisiana and Florida. College came in the form of tours with R&B legend Johnny Taylor and blues masters Lucky Peterson and Bobby Blue Bland.

Kenny Aronoff (drums) has a resume that spans four decades and reads like a “Who’s Who” of roots rock legends, including John Mellencamp, John Fogerty, Eric Clapton, Jack White, Billy Gibbons, B.B. King, Bonnie Raitt, and Dr. John.

GOV’T MULE Frontman WARREN HAYNES To Release New Solo Album In July, Feat. RAILROAD EARTH

Grammy-Award winning vocalist-songwriter and revered guitarist WARREN HAYNES will release a new solo studio album, featuring RAILROAD EARTH, entitled “Ashes And Dust” on July 24, 2015 via Provogue / Mascot Label Group. The album, only the third that Haynes has ever released under his own name, is one of his most gorgeous, musically rich and personal albums to date, shining an entirely new light on Haynes’ enduring creative spirit.

Immediately and clearly different from his usual style, the album encompasses beautiful acoustic arrangements, a rootsy/Americana soundscape, folk-based songwriting and soulful, honeyed vocals. It also showcases new dimensions of Haynes as a guitarist, seeing him dive deeper into acoustic guitar and playing more slide guitar than he has played in a long time.

While many of the songs on Ashes and Dust are brand new, Haynes wrote some of the tunes 20 or 30 years ago.

“I’ve been writing songs all my life from a more folky, singer-songwriter, even Celtic direction,” Haynes says. “For a while, I’ve been compiling songs that didn’t necessarily fit in with Gov’t Mule or the Allman Brothers or even my last solo album. So this record was really a chance to bring a lot of that music to fruition. It’s really given me the opportunity to take a lot of songs I love, that didn’t have a home, and build a home for them.”

When he finally decided that this new project could be the right home for these songs, he brought in the New Jersey-based Americana band Railroad Earth as collaborators, whose world-class musicianship allowed Haynes’ vision to flourish.

“We’ve known each other casually for several years, and then at Del-Fest a few years ago, we winged a few songs together and it went really well. A little later, when I was opening the Capitol Theatre in Port Chester, NY, they joined me for part of the set. We did that with a little more rehearsal, more preparation, and it was a great experience. At that point, I started thinking that maybe I should make my next record with these guys.”

Also bringing their talents to Ashes and Dust are the incandescent Grace Potter, who joins Haynes for the only duet on the album on “Gold Dust Woman,” and Grammy-Award winning singer-songwriter Shawn Colvin and famed harmonica player Mickey Raphael who each make an appearance on “Wanderlust.” Allman Brothers Band bassist Oteil Burbridge and percussionist Marc Quinones play on “Spots of Time,” a song written by Haynes and Phil Lesh from the Grateful Dead. Allman Brothers Band had been playing it on stage in recent years but never had a chance to record it before retiring, so Haynes found it fitting to finally document it in the studio.

Long recognized as a prolific musician and a cornerstone of the American music landscape, Haynes has brought his virtuosic artistry to three of the greatest live groups in rock history – Allman Brothers Band, Gov’t Mule and the Dead – leading to thousands of unforgettable performances and millions of album and track sales. Despite all of the ground that Haynes has covered on his musical journey, he makes it known on Ashes & Dust that he still has many more miles to explore.
